Bruner Lab

Celebrating our very own George Wu and Tiffany Zhou for their acceptance to Ph.D. programs this fall with a group lunch! George will be attending UNC Chapel Hill, and Tiffany will be attending The Ohio State University. We will miss you, go and do great things! #PhD #graduation

Happy to have this cover designed by local artist Sammie Bruner associated with our recent publication "Mechanism of Catalysis and Substrate Binding of Epoxyqueuosine" (10.1021/acs.biochem.4c00524). @ACS4Authors #MyACSCover

The 2024 Bruner x Butcher Lab holiday party was a great time! This one was especially fun, thanks to our spirited undergraduate students. #christmas #lab #gators #chemistry #yankeeswap

Congratulations to You on publication of her work on tRNA modification! Mechanism of Catalysis and Substrate Binding of Epoxyqueuosine Reductase in the Biosynthetic Pathway to Queuosine-Modified tRNA | Biochemistry pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Congratulations to Anu, Javi, and Peter for presenting posters at the 2024 CBI Symposium last month! If you're wondering why Peter isn't pictured, it's because he's the man behind the camera! Thanks Peter! #research #science #biochemistry #CBI #UF #gators

We celebrated Amit, Anu, and Peter for their great seminar presentations this semester by getting some hot pot last week! We didn’t eat any turkey but we sure are thankful for these three!

Save the Date! UF Chemistry-Biology Interface Mini Symposium on Nov 9, 2024. Join us for a day of research and networking!

🚀 It’s OFFICIAL! 🎉 ACS-ORCA is now a General Registered Student Organization @UFChemistry ! We’re excited to launch the graduate student club this fall semester. Get ready for a year of chemistry fun and career development! 🧪🔬 #UF #OrganicChemistry #GradStudentLife

The Bruner x Butcher groups' river party was a blast! A tropical storm can't keep these Gators out of the water

New Preprint from our lab. The @BrunerLab and us developed yeast strains to perform functional genomics studies of the signal recognition particle. We were surprised strains with titratable expressions of the SRP complex did not exist, so we built some. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

The Bruner Lab had lunch at Ford's Garage to celebrate our graduated PhD lab members and energize for beam time!

We enjoyed visiting Brentwood School's science summer camp and showing the kids some fun chemistry! #chemistry #science #community

Big congratulations to three new PhDs from Bruner Lab! Good luck to Wen-Ting, You, and Thisuri.

@LabRudolf @tyler_alsup_ @UF_CLAS @UFChemistry Congrats Dr. Alsup 🍾

Ready to celebrate @tyler_alsup_ at @UF_CLAS PhD ceremony! @UFChemistry #ProudPI

Yesterday we celebrated Nicole Colon Rosa and her mentorship of 3 undergraduate students who will be officially joining our lab this year! They so appreciated her tutelage that they put her face on a cake! Thanks for making the CURE class a great experience Nicole!

Join us in congratulating Wen-Ting Chen for successfully defending her dissertation on probing alternate linkage chemistries and the structure characterization of microviridin-based cyclic peptides! We're proud of your determination and hard work!

Congratulations to You Hu for successfully defending her dissertation on the molecular basis of novel enzymes in biosynthetic pathways with application to synthetic biology! Keep doing great things wherever you go!

Congratulations to Thisuri Wanniarachchi for successfully defending her dissertation on the structural and functional studies of diverse microbial natural product biosynthetic pathways! We are all proud of you, and though we'll miss you, are excited to see where you’ll go next!
